Still Stuck

It's hard to believe that two years ago this weekend, we left for our Embassy Trip to Ethiopia and to bring Martha home.  Time has flown by and brought so many changes to Martha and our family as a whole.  God has been so good - all the time!

Unfortunately, there are still kids at the orphanage that Martha was at, that haven't seen much change.  They are still stuck.  And, in particular, the one little boy that many of you are aware of and have been asked to pray for in previous posts.  He is still there and not much in his situation has changed.  This breaks our hearts.

Would you please pray for this little boy in particular?  Pray for those involved in his life to make the changes needed to help him in the long run.  Pray heavily for God to intervene in these next few days and weeks as some are seeking hard to help him out in some way.  We don't know which way that will be - there are a couple of options.  But, please pray for some sort of change to come about for his life and that his story will begin to unfold, instead of being still stuck.

Thank you - from deep in our hearts - thank you~
